Set in 18th century colonial Jamaica, Azuka Oforka’s searing new play powerfully explores the experience of women during slavery – those who benefited from it, those who were brutalised by it and those who fought to destroy it. The Women of Llanrumney puts Wales’s role in slavery centre stage; illuminating a hidden chapter of Welsh history.

Nan falls in love with the exciting Kitty and follows her to London, where self-discovery and adventures await her. It’s been over 20 years since Sarah Water’s debut novel was adapted for the BBC, provoking some contention about its sexual explicitness.
